3// Think of Resources as File Descriptors. They are integers that are allocated
4// by the privileged side of Deno which refer to various rust objects that need
5// to be persisted between various ops. For example, network sockets are
6// resources. Resources may or may not correspond to a real operating system
7// file descriptor (hence the different name).

23/// Resources are Rust objects that are attached to a [deno_core::JsRuntime].
24/// They are identified in JS by a numeric ID (the resource ID, or rid).
25/// Resources can be created in ops. Resources can also be retrieved in ops by
26/// their rid. Resources are not thread-safe - they can only be accessed from
27/// the thread that the JsRuntime lives on.
28///
29/// Resources are reference counted in Rust. This means that they can be
30/// cloned and passed around. When the last reference is dropped, the resource
31/// is automatically closed. As long as the resource exists in the resource
32/// table, the reference count is at least 1.
33///
34/// ### Readable
35///
36/// Readable resources are resources that can have data read from. Examples of
37/// this are files, sockets, or HTTP streams.
38///
39/// Readables can be read from from either JS or Rust. In JS one can use
40/// `Deno.core.read()` to read from a single chunk of data from a readable. In
41/// Rust one can directly call `read()` or `read_byob()`. The Rust side code is
42/// used to implement ops like `op_slice`.
43///
44/// A distinction can be made between readables that produce chunks of data
45/// themselves (they allocate the chunks), and readables that fill up
46/// bring-your-own-buffers (BYOBs). The former is often the case for framed
47/// protocols like HTTP, while the latter is often the case for kernel backed
48/// resources like files and sockets.
49///
50/// All readables must implement `read()`. If resources can support an optimized
51/// path for BYOBs, they should also implement `read_byob()`. For kernel backed
52/// resources it often makes sense to implement `read_byob()` first, and then
53/// implement `read()` as an operation that allocates a new chunk with
54/// `len == limit`, then calls `read_byob()`, and then returns a chunk sliced to
55/// the number of bytes read. Kernel backed resources can use the
56/// [deno_core::impl_readable_byob] macro to implement optimized `read_byob()`
57/// and `read()` implementations from a single `Self::read()` method.
58///
59/// ### Writable
60///
61/// Writable resources are resources that can have data written to. Examples of
62/// this are files, sockets, or HTTP streams.
63///
64/// Writables can be written to from either JS or Rust. In JS one can use
65/// `Deno.core.write()` to write to a single chunk of data to a writable. In
66/// Rust one can directly call `write()`. The latter is used to implement ops
67/// like `op_slice`.
